nNo wonder Carlo treated him with so much respect.

nCarlo looked at Qin Ran again and said a few words to the Xu family members before leaving with Bo Te to the first district.

n“Mr. Bo Te?” As the two walked towards the entrance, Bo Te stopped. Carlo looked up at him.

nBo Te’s gaze turned towards the people behind him. He had a pair of dark, cold eyes. Faint blood vessels were visible in them.

nAs his gaze reached the Xu family members, they took a step back unconsciously.

nBo Te’s gaze stopped at a woman in the crowd. That woman looked cool but did not have a ruthless aura.

nHis thick eyebrows twitched slightly. He shook his head and said, “It’s nothing. I was mistaken.”

n

nWith that, he went in with Carlo.

nThose remaining outside were largely the Xu family members.

nWas he really the Underground Champion?

nSecond Uncle Xu and the other family members were shocked and turned to Qin Ran subconsciously.

nIn their minds, they had the same question—

nHow did she know?

nWhile the others were shocked, Cheng Mu’s expression remained the same. He lifted the suitcases and admired Bo Te. “No wonder he’s a champion. He must be very powerful.”

nLast year, he had heard Qin Ran and Shi Liming talk about the Arena.

nBut… Qin Ran did not allow him to go.

nQin Ran was very familiar with the Arena. Thus, Cheng Mu wasn’t shocked that she could recognize Bo Te today.

nHe deeply admired Bo Te, as he understood that those who fought in the Arena weren’t scared of death or sought revenge. Being crowned the champion, Cheng Mu found it deeply admirable.

nAfter all…

nEven Shi Liming didn’t dare to fight in the deathmatch.

nXu Yaoguang saw that Cheng Mu’s expression remained the same. He couldn’t help but pause and take another look at him and Qin Ran.

n“Young Master Xu, follow me.” After Carlo left, the guards brought Xu Yaoguang and the others to the third district.

nThe Xu family was under the Mas family. Other than these top forces in Continent M, there were ordinary people as well.

nTo them, the Xu family had the same status as Carlo.

n…

nThe Mas family’s territory was very big.

nXu Yaoguang and the rest lived in a three-story house with ten rooms.

nQin Ran stayed in the innermost room on the third level, and Cheng Mu stayed in the room beside her. Xu Yaoguang stayed beside Cheng Mu.

nCheng Mu scanned the room. The room was ordinary without much decoration.

nHe moved the flower vase and checked the room again before leaving.

nQin Ran slept the entire day.

nAt 5 pm, Cheng Mu woke her up for dinner.

nThe house was air-conditioned. Qin Ran put on a coat and went out casually.

n“Master Juan called me in the afternoon. Miss Qin, do you want to call him back?” Cheng Mu followed behind her holding his cell phone.

n“Got it.” Qin Ran rolled up her right sleeves and indifferently replied.

nDownstairs.

nXu Yaoguang and Second Uncle Xu did not sleep and followed Carlo around the base.

n“What’s she doing?” One of the Xu family’s representatives looked upstairs and frowned.

n“I heard from Cheng Mu that she was sleeping.” Second Uncle Xu also looked up. “This is good. She’s clever.”

n

nQin Ran wasn’t an ordinary person and had achieved outstanding results at the Research Institute.

nHer identity was very unique too.

nThe Xu family members were jealous of her, or else they would not have tried to stop Elder Xu from sending Qin Ran to Continent M.

nShe was clever to avoid getting involved in the Xu family’s matters.

n“Mr. Bo Te must achieve a good ranking this time around…” Qin Ran and Cheng Mu came downstairs as Second Uncle Xu was speaking.

nHe immediately stopped talking.

nIt was obvious that he wanted to avoid Qin Ran and Cheng Mu.

nQin Ran did not ask anything. She was clear of the reason Principal Xu allowed her to come along to Continent M. He wanted her to establish her prestige with some of the Xu family members.

nIt was painstaking.

nQin Ran sat on the seat while thinking of another matter.

nXu Yaoguang, sitting opposite her, exchanged looks with Second Uncle Xu and said, “The allocation was done by the forces in the West of the international center. I’m not entirely sure of the details.”

nXu Yaoguang didn’t fully understand the forces in Continent M.

nHe didn’t know who were the forces present in the West of Continent M.

nHe told Qin Ran the purpose of their visit. The area that they were fighting for would be allocated to the Xu family.

nPausing, she lifted her head to look at Xu Yaoguang.

nThe forces in the West…

nNo wonder Cheng Juan rushed back to Continent M. As he was settling the matters with the Underground Alliance, he might also be involved in this.

nShe withdrew her gaze and did not speak again.

nAfter finishing her meal, Qin Ran immediately went up with her phone.

nSecond Uncle Xu and the others exchanged glances. When Xu Yaoguang reached the study, they asked, “Young Master Xu, what did you say to her? I feel that… she’s not ordinary.”

nXu Yaoguang looked out of the window. It was almost 6 pm and the sun was setting.

n“Grandfather won’t be wrong regarding who he chooses to trust.” Xu Yaoguang turned to his side and lowered his eyes.

nSecond Uncle Xu frowned. “Don’t you think it’s strange? She’s a domestic student, how did she recognize Bo Te immediately? We also asked Carlo this afternoon and he confirmed that ordinary people wouldn’t know about Bo Te. Young Master Xu, she’s… not simple. She was too calm when she talked about the Underground Champion.”
